1. Brown your hamburger in a large skillet with the onion, garlic and a bit of salt and pepper.2. Put the canned tomatoes in a blender and blend them up nice and lovely like. Just for 30 seconds or so.3. Put
the meat mixture, blended tomatoes and all other ingredients BUT THE
TORTELLINI and TOMATO SOUP into a large soup pot. Bring it to a boil
then reduce the heat and let the soup simmer for about 20 minutes. I
like to leave the lid partially on. Less to clean up, and it keeps the
heat some what trapped.4.
In a separate medium sized sauce pan cook the tortellini according to
package directions. Be sure not to over cook it. When it's done drain
the water from the tortellini and add it to the large soup pot.5. Stir in the tomato soup and let it simmer for just 5 more minutes.
